And almost since the dawn of the medium, movies have shaped the public’s understanding of and assumptions about disability.

In a house designed for manipulation, paranoia, and power plays, sixteen strangers are cut off from the outside world—watched every second by cameras, judged by millions. Welcome to Big Brother.
